About us
The Echinacea Project is recruiting an enthusiastic K-12 or community college educator for a paid professional development opportunity researching tallgrass prairie during the summer field season. As an NSF-funded RET (Research Experiences for Teachers) participant, you will gain hands-on experience collecting experimental data, ask novel questions by developing an independent research project, and design a plan to bring scientific concepts and methods into your classroom.
If you are interested in research and collaborating with other scientists, please apply! RET participants will receive a stipend, reimbursement for travel costs, and housing near the field site. We strongly encourage educators from underfunded school districts and educators from groups underrepresented in science to apply.
